The Backrooms: Places Without Purpose
Welcome to this video analysis of The Backrooms, a captivating horror phenomenon that has taken the internet by storm. Have you ever experienced that glitch in a video game where you suddenly fall through the ground, descending into an endless void? Imagine if this glitch happened in real life, where reality crumbles around you, and everything you know is called into question. Welcome to The Backrooms.
The concept of The Backrooms originated from a single 4Chan post on May 12th, 2019, accompanied by a famous image. The post described The Backrooms as a place with repeating corridors and hallways, resembling an old office space with mono-yellow wallpaper and buzzing fluorescent lighting. It was claimed to stretch over 600 million square miles, a vast space one could unintentionally "noclip" into from reality, akin to passing through physical barriers in video games.
This unique idea of being trapped in an otherworldly place captured the attention of internet users, leading to the development of extended lore and the creation of numerous fan-made levels and creatures within The Backrooms. It birthed an entire sub-genre in internet horror, reminiscent of the SCP Foundation. However, in this video, we will delve into the core concept of The Backrooms: the existence of an infinite plane of existence that defies our understanding of reality.
From a young age, we learn that most things in the world serve a purpose. Objects, buildings, and structures have reasons for their existence, implying the existence of people behind them. Even abandoned buildings once had a purpose, and their remnants remind us of the life they once contained. However, The Backrooms shatters this notion. It is a place that never had a purpose, never lived, and never died like abandoned buildings do. It is a timeless void, devoid of a past or future, existing only in an eternal present.
Perhaps the fault lies with us, as humans, unable to comprehend the purpose of The Backrooms. It is reminiscent of a beef cow that cannot fathom its purpose within the machine of meat production. We, like cows, may not possess the capacity to understand the grander purpose behind The Backrooms. This realization is even more unsettling than the idea of purposelessness itself.
The Backrooms feels like a creation born out of HR Giger's nightmares, where machinery serves a purpose beyond our comprehension. It is a purpose that exists, but one we cannot grasp. Calling The Backrooms a purposeless mess of mono-yellow wallpaper is akin to claiming that Giger's art lacks purpose. It has a purpose, but it eludes our understanding, which adds to its eerie nature.
The Backrooms is a place built but not designed, a corpse that stands but has never lived. It resembles human structures but feels alien and unlivable. It shares similarities with liminal spaces, lifeless areas of transition that evoke nostalgia, unease, and a sense of the unfamiliar. Just as liminal spaces exist in contexts we rarely imagine, The Backrooms has forgotten humanity while humanity has not forgotten it.
The Backrooms raises unanswerable questions. The very concept of an infinite office space devoid of people to fund, design, and build it challenges our understanding of existence. It defies the logic that everything requires a creator. In the realm of non-places, like hotels or bus stops, where identity is disregarded for mass utility, The Backrooms stands as the epitome of uncanniness. It is a place that was never designed for humans but rather for everything that is not human.
The fear instilled by The Backrooms lies not in the presence of a monster but in its absence. It is scarier to encounter nothingness, to have your fears go unjustified, than to face a tangible threat. The Complex, a Backrooms-inspired

@@CUBETechie That's a really interesting question, no it does not appear that liminal spaces are universal. I found a video that depicts liminal spaces as experienced from the perspective of someone growing up in Russia, and they were far different than the typically western liminal spaces we all know. As for nostalgia, I'd say that it plays a large part in a liminal space, but it doesn't have to be there for an image to feel "liminal."

modern Backrooms seems to be in an ever intensifying battle to one-up itself; levels don't feel "liminal" anymore, but instead seem to be made just to try to be weirder or scarier than the levels made before, and this makes me feel as if they have lost their initial goal entirely. It is as if early Backrooms (before its explosive popularization) was a smash hit movie, and modern Backrooms (post-explosion) is an untrue, straight-to-DVD sequel made purely for money. Almost tragic, really.

What initially attracted me to the backrooms was how closely they mimic my actual dreams. Massive conglomerations of real world places twisted by my subconscious into familiar, yet alien, spaces with impossible dimensions that I feel almost compelled to explore. They were/are often sparsely populated, meaning seldom empty but never crowded. Seeing these types of spaces being physically visualized is like peering into the minds of others with similar dreams. Unfortunately some of the more recent backrooms media really want to push the 'video game' aesthetic into that concept by adding 'survival' elements and an ever increasing compendium of 'entities' which the initial idea only alluded to but never specified.

People like you sound arrogant. While the backrooms has goofy shit, it still pertains to its original foundation and that’s the mystery behind its origins and purpose of its existence. If you were truly a fan of the old concept, then you would’ve acknowledged that it wasn’t the idea of isolation that got you, but rather the idea of a foreign reality mimicking human culture. In general the backrooms was meant to serve psychological horror by playing with the human mind. You’re acting as if the nostalgia and false sense of security from certain levels are nonsensical even though it ties in to our nature. We seek comfort in what we recognize and call home

The Backrooms are so calming, and at the same time unnerving. I had a really weird dream after not sleeping for a day and a half due to travel, and finding a hotel room, And from there I dreamed I was still in reality. While I was asleep, i was still going to school, still doing housework, still doing everything anyone regular would be doing. I was convinced I was in a real reality, when all was but in my mind. The really cool part is, I was walking home on a sunset, all alone, in a empty grass field. I do not know how I got there, when I got there, the movements of the false celestial objects in the sky, but I fell, braced for impact, and it never came. I held my eyes waiting for something to happen, yet nothing did. I woke up in the Backrooms, the same placed I had wished to see for a long time after investing my time into learning about liminal spaces. Instead of excitement, I felt fear. I didn't think the Backrooms was real, nor have i considered the Backrooms to even exist outside of reality, and there I was, laying down, facing white lights buzzing, yellow walls with an unfamiliar design, and random segments of wall that seemed to serve no purpose. For me, time felt like 1 second a second, and days felt like actual days. I explored, seen many dark corners, many interesting places, yet no end in sight. I feared for the presence of something, but what scared me more was the presence of nothing. The emptiness and random places of seemingly random objects with no actual purpose. For the last day I experienced the backrooms, I found the poolrooms. it felt so real, I could hear the sloshing of the clear water, the smell of chlorine, the feel of the smooth, hard surface of the tiles, and rarely seen windows that reveal a violet sunset in the distance, with clouds spanning out for infinity, with no ground in sight. I woke up after i touched a segment of wall that looked slightly faded, and worn. I was frightened. After that I ate a subway sandwich.

I hate comments stating "Oh entities suck, this has gone to shit, blah blah". People have been shitting on entities since Backrooms writing was only (primarily shared) on Reddit in 2019 and people complained that level 4 "wasn't confirmed" and there was only levels 1-3 that were "accepted". It's a COMMUNITY of writing, an archive for you to use, not a 100%-connected universe that NEEDS to be followed to a T. Use whatever elements you want in your writing, if you don't want entities or something else, fuck em'. I ran a Backrooms TTRPG group with a few lads for about two years and we rarely used entities and barely even touched many levels that weren't written up by our favorite authors, and fixed the ones we didn't like to fit our fun little roleplaying game to make our own story. It's funny, because a VAST majority of the people who are shitting on stuff not being "liminal" (you can only do that singular trope for so long before it becomes repetitive) have never even participated in the community whatsoever and frequently act like they can do better than the authors who have been writing there for multiple years now. The community has been publicized heavily and now people are just shitting on it for the sake of hopping on the bandwagon. Some might call me salty or a gatekeeper, but if you're gonna argue and can't back up your claims, or simply do not have the depth of knowledge to have a proper conversation about the many facets to the Backrooms genre, disrespectfully - your opinions are beyond invalid. Nice video by the way, just thought I'd leave my thoughts floating about in your comments.

A very intriguing point, and one that I'm glad you brought up. Because, yeah, I don't know any authors of levels, and I am not active in any Backrooms wiki but let's be honest here, the trope of "scary monster in spooky place" has been done to death in both professional and amateur horror media, while I do agree that authors should have creative liberty, I think The Backrooms as a concept had the potential of subversing this monotony. But ever since The Backrooms got mass media attention, the impact of a couple of very well-written, worked-on levels started fading as more and more people devised increasingly complex levels and even sub-levels. The entities in my opinion take the very unique concept of a spooky place that never got a justification for being spooky and slammed it to the ground. The different levels while all unique in their own right, honestly just clutter things for me. I feel that the majority of people who have hopped on The Backrooms bandwagon want to turn it into yet another cliche "Scary monster in scary place" but I don't want that and the people who rightly complain that The Backrooms have lost all meaning don't want that either. I don't want The Backrooms to turn into an SCP clone, that is already a fleshed-out existing idea, The Backrooms are their own thing and should be focused more on their roots than what the vast majority of people who watch horror want. (The exact same thing that has been done over and over.) Although I am very glad you commented, it means I can actually have an informational argument with a like-minded person, and I am very curious to see what you have so say.

I think it’s fine if the mainstream backrooms community wants monsters, but people should also be able to point out how the feeling changes drastically when there are other things in the backrooms with you. I know the backrooms have turned into something directed more towards children which is totally fine, but I wish there was more than just one backrooms community branching from the original idea. The main backrooms community has turned into a copy or continuation of SCP, and while I think it is cool to connect the two community projects, I also want places to discuss the backrooms in different ways than just that.

An amazing video from a criminally underrated channel! The way you word things resonate with me so much! And the song at the end, perfectly fitting for that ending section paired with the backrooms footage! This is a longer comment so enjoy the read if you're willing! Liminal spaces are something special to me, never have I had so many conflicting emotions while looking at a place that I've never even been to. Although many spaces speak to me on a level in which I cannot understand, grasslands are probably my favourite liminal space for how they make me feel and I think the 'Bliss' wallpaper initiated it. There's just something so freeing and uplifting about grasslands to me, sure there are also the feelings of lonliness and fear, however the positive thoughts outweigh the negative ones by a landslide. The thought of being near no one, having no connection to modern society. It is just you, the rolling grass hills, the blue sky with a few scattered clouds and the soft wind, blowing your hair and the grass simultaneously, effectively making you one with this land. Despite you finally feeling like you have found a place where you belong, that typical liminal feeling reveals itself in the form of a familiar looking hill, or it could be brought upon the way the unnaturally healthy and soft grass brushed up upon your leg. Or maybe you'll see something completely out of place in the distance, a white, plastic garden chair perhaps? Sadly, the backrooms has had every last drop squeezed out of it for content. On random occasions however, you do find that one image of the backrooms that reignites your love for them, only then do you have a slither of hope that there is still a part of the backrooms that is untouched.

Had an experience similar to this in the recent past. Where I live, there is this lake where ... when I was a child, many people went there, to fish, to swim, soak in the sun and so on. Funny thing is, that lake was not meant for such a thing in the first place. As time passed, the infrastructure of the city grew, catching up to that lake, most of the living quarters and businesses dumping waste in it, rendering it obsolete. No one goes there anymore. But I still remember that lake. It is the place I learned to swim after all. One day I made the choice to ride my bike along side that lake. It was ... odd to say the least. Same lake, same roads but my mind could not comprehend that the place was abandoned. Took a rest stop, took off my shoes, walked bare foot. On those paths, even crouched to touch it with my hands, to feel that place once more. Wanted to take another swim in the lake but I could not, the water was compromised as is. I arrived at the spot where we improvised a trampoline, so we can dive. Still saw it, submerged in the toxic water. While sad, I felt at peace, knowing that this place was here before me and will still exist after I'm dirt. Glad in having the opportunity to make some memories there. In a way, that day, I no clipped into the past. Reminding me that ... the world I hold near and dear to my heart ... no longer exists. The place is still there ... but not how I remember it.

Then I'm going to sing since it's so echoey in there so it's perfect for that. Liminal spaces put me at peace and helps me focus on the present. Even if it's at night. I'm not scared or unsettled at all, in fact the opposite. I'm sure it's cause I'm mentally ill. Perfect example of comforting the disturbed but disturbing the comfortable.

I don't understand the fear of these places. It's just empty.
I find the backrooms and liminal spaces very interesting and I feel almost at home in them. Although most of my fascination stems from a short story collection about dreams by Michael Ende (who also wrote The Neverending Story) in which a being wanders endless rooms and doesn't remember anything. It just wanders. I find it a bit sad this story never gets mentioned in these videos because it would add a lot as an early piece about liminal spaces or, actually, a backroom-esque maze.
I've retraced my memory for basically the entire video trying to remember the name of the song @ 3:39, but I just can't so I'm folding and deciding to ask. What's it's name? I've heard it before.

I want to recommend playing a flash game series named "submachine", if you can find a way to do it. I think its kinda similar in some places to the idea of backrooms, but before backrooms was a thing. Like, the whole concept of being alone in an infinitely large, ancient but modern structure with no clear purpose for which it exists, that sometimes feels like there should be people, and like there was someone there just mere days ago before you came there, but now they are gone.
another thing about the backrooms is that it's freely open to anyone to make and share any sort of iteration of it. there is no "official" canon and in turn any drama related to a large project goes by without any real impact to the community at large.

The Universe itself is the ultimate back room…this idea of a series of back rooms almost feels like a search for an afterlife of some sort…who made the walls? The wallpaper? The carpet? Where does that much power come from to keep that many lights on? Far more than Earth can produce…a bizzare kind of purgatory or even hell…strange to be honest…but makes sense that a generation feeling disconnected and disenfranchised would come up with something like this…

Can confirm
I like to think the entities built the backrooms. And what's out of the backrooms is a full world. But without buildings, without any trace of humanity, where dinosaurs still exist. But different dinosaurs. Monsters so incredibly terrifying the entities had to build one building big enough for all of them to live in. Because the outside is too terrifying, the outside has monsters and creatures so horrifying we can't even imagine. The backrooms are heaven and the "frontrooms" the outside place is hell. Its unfathomable pain and suffering full of demons. Its hell. I think that theory adds a meaning to the backrooms, the backrooms is a metaphor. Showing us what we consider heaven is really just walls and carpets. An office job is heaven for us, it gives us money, it gives us purpose. But the backrooms show us the truth behind that. Behind it, in the *back* hides the truth. Its an endless road that leads to nowhere. Its a waste of time.. wait.. but there is no time in the backrooms, maybe you just think its a waste of time but that's impossible since there is no time. How do you waste time here if time will always move the same? How do you waste time there if time does not exist? What even is time? Is it an invention? If it really was always there then why couldn't the backrooms always be there? Too many questions. Too many uncomforts. How about we just take a break, rest on those moisty carpets and sleep. After all.. Sleep isn't a waste of time.

@@Cresendex that is how 4chan works. That exact image, along with that exact text was posted multiple times to 4chan between 2009 and 1012 (which was when I stopped going there.) It was probably posted many more times between 1012 and 2019.
Sounds like life.
There are two types of the backrooms The infinite empty unsettling backrooms The filled with monsters and people and the hub backrooms

Could be plausible. Because I find it weird that he just happened to stumble upon the archived 4chan post on an unfindable link unless linked in the bottom of the Reddit link or a pre-existing /x/ or backrooms video and not the wikis or hundreds of other videos like I and others did.
Basically, kids ruin everything.
Anyone know the name of the song at 11:30?

Humm I've heard quite a few stories like that.. are the back rooms real.. does the government have hidden away.. LoL oOoOO ha ha ha.. how could they hide something that big.. underground cities how would they power it..
